instead as PIRQ[H:E]#.
GPI[1:0]3 I 5 V Core This signal is fixed as input only and can be used
instead as PCI REQ[6:5]#.
NOTES:
1.All inputs are sticky. The status bit remains set as long as the input was asserted for two
clocks.GPIs are sampled on PCI clocks in S0/S1. GPIs are sampled on RTC clocks in S3/S4/S5.
2.Some GPIOs exist in the VccSus3_3 power plane. Care must be taken to make sure GPIO
signals are not driven high into powered-down planes. Some ICH6 GPIOs may be connected to
pins on devices that exist in the core well. If these GPIOs are outputs, there is a danger that a
loss of core power (PWROK low) or a Power Button Override event will result in the Intel
ICH6 driving a pin to a logic 1 to another device that is powered down.
3.GPI[15:0] can be configured to cause a SMI# or SCI. Note that a GPI can be routed to either
an SMI# or an SCI, but not both.
